Youth Stake Activity

By Young Women's Presidency 29 Apr, 2020

We’ve had to cancel our Stake Youth Activity that was scheduled for this coming Thursday, April 30. But we’d still like to hold a virtual activity with our youth. Logistics make this difficult to hold at a certain date and time. Instead, we’ve decided to invite our youth to participate in a COVID-19 Mask Competition (see attached flyer). They can design and create masks that they, their family members, and/or other people can use. If the youth create more masks than they and their family can use, we will donate them locally. We will give prizes to the youth for various categories, such as most creative mask, most colorful mask, most professional mask, etc. For the youth who creates the most masks to donate (see below), we will have a special award. We will even have a best design award for those youth who are not able to acquire the materials or means to actually make the masks–they can design masks on an electronic device (iPad, phone) or sketch it on paper and submit their design for award consideration.

As a stake, we do not have the materials for the masks. However, for those youth who legitimately want to create a good number of masks to donate, volunteer kits and materials can be acquired through Project Protect and the Just Serve Initiative. More information is available at: https://projectprotect.health/#/

Attached are some basic instructions for 2 different types of masks. The youth can use these patterns (or their own pattern/design) and material of their own to create their masks. We hope that youth leaders and parents will help our youth acquire material and tools to make this happen–there may be ward members who have extra material and thread that they would donate. (If a ward needs to purchase material to enable its youth to participate, please speak to me or Sis. Watson before purchasing, as we may be able to assist with that purchase via the stake youth budget.) If the youth do not have access to a sewing machine, they may (1) sew the mask by hand, (2) work with parents/leaders … Read the rest

POSTPONED to 2021 – FSY Registration

By Bishopric 19 Apr, 2020

Due to the ongoing impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic, it has become necessary to postpone For the Strength of Youth (FSY) conferences held in 2020 in the U.S. and Canada to now be held in 2021. Refunds will automatically be made to those who have registered.

Church Annnoucement

Brothers and Sisters-

Today is officially the first day that registration for FSY camps is open. There has been some confusion about this since it is the first time. I think we have gotten things worked out on our end.

1) Your child must be registered for an LDS account in order to register. This requires an email and your child’s membership number which can be found on LDS tools. If you have difficulty please reach out to a member of the bishopric for help. Each youth must be approved by the bishop, but I cannot approve them until they have a church account set up. Everyone that currently has an account should already be approved. If there is a problem, or once the account is set up please reach out to me to get them approved.

2) Your youth is able to go to FSY is they are turning 14 this year and older. They are not eligible if they are graduating high school or older in 2020.

3) Wards and stakes will NOT be signing up together for a particular week. Choose a week and location that works for you. With all of the changes this year in the youth program we have gotten behind on dates for multi-day youth camps for the young men. We will have those figured tonight.

4) The cost of FSY is $150.00. $75 will be required from you and the ward will cover the other $75. Because of this please make sure to cancel as soon as possible if you find out that you will not be able to make it the week that you sign up, so we can avoid this charge.

If you have any questions please reach out to me or one of my councilors.
